THE BIG MOUTH (1967) **1/2 In which Jerry Lewis inadvertently-and subconsciously on every end of the equation, I think-creates surfer template for the ages. If you just think of the term "'60s Jerry Lewis flick" you will receive this entire film, virtually intact. Yeah, not every single gag or anything, but the tag that encompasses the ideal. Good guys, bad guys, identity confusion, Jerry Jerry Jerry, where's Jerry? Who's Jerry? Who's that? Could that really happen? It's a consistent Jerry vehicle, but lacking in any transcendent moment of Jerryness.
